Sang

Famous quotes containing the word sang:

    You sang far better than you knew; the songs
    That for your listeners’ hungry hearts sufficed
    Still live,—but more than this to you belongs:
    You sang a race from wood and stone to Christ.
    James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938)

    And thus they sang their mysterious duo, sang of their nameless hope, their death-in-love, their union unending, lost forever in the embrace of night’s magic kingdom. O sweet night, everlasting night of love! Land of blessedness whose frontiers are infinite!
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    Grandfather sang it under the gallows:
    “Hear, gentlemen, ladies, and all mankind:
    Money is good and a girl might be better,
    But good strong blows are delights to the mind.”
    There, standing on the cart,
    He sang it from his heart.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
